Tooth decay is an infectious disease
and a mother usually infects her own baby. Germs passed between a
parent’s mouth and the baby’s mouth. You decide whether the bacteria you
pass on to your baby is healthy or harmful.
- Germs are given to the baby in
saliva (by kissing, cleaning a pacifier, tasting food on a spoon,
etc.)
- Germs grow on toothbrushes; everyone
should have his or her own brush and clean it in an antiseptic mouth
rinse or a tooth brush sanitizer. Be careful about sharing.
People often think that they have been
unlucky and that they have inherited poor teeth. There are factors that
you could have inherited which have given you a dry mouth problem. You
may have a skeleton or jaw shape that makes it difficult to close your
lips together. Families may share a special lip shape that makes
everyone in the family a mouth breather and thus prone to dry mouth and
dry teeth.
Xylitol can help everyone in your
family fight tooth decay and enjoy better oral health. Parents have
small windows of opportunity when they can positively influence the
future of their children’s teeth forever. They can use these moments to
give their children the gift of healthy teeth by protecting new teeth as
they come into the mouth. Children with perfect teeth at 12 to14 years
old (or when all permanent teeth have erupted) are likely to have
perfect teeth for life.
Don’t put the blame on soft, weak teeth
or inherited problems and don’t wait for your dentist to prevent dental
disease. A dentist can fill and repair cavities and damaged teeth but he
cannot stop these bad things from happening.
